Maintenance message is setted by the technician, the numbers of copies that you can make with the same drum is limitted by the technician, (100k) if you reach this limit the maintenance message appears, you have to replace the maintenance kit (the opc drum, transfert corona, main corona) to avoid the bad quality copy. if you need to work with the machine you have to call the technician he can increase the counter limit to clear the warning message.
